Pharaoh Hound

Pharaoh Hounds are velcro dogs with the metabolism of a hummingbird and the prey drive of a small missile. They’ll follow you from room to room, then bolt after literally anything that moves, so a secure fence isn’t optional. If you own one, you own a dog that’s simultaneously clingy and completely unreliable off-leash, which is its own special kind of chaos.
